RICHARD LEONE, PETITIONER,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA, RESPONDENT

Fla. 5th DCA | 1995-06-09
No. 95-965
GOSHORN and THOMPSON, JJ., concur.
657 So. 2d 26 Florida District Court of Appeal, Fifth District (1995) Positive Treatment
Cited by 10 cases


Opinion of the Court
W. SHARP, Judge.

W. SHARP, Judge.

We deny Leone’s petition for writ of habe-as corpus. This petition is an abuse of process. Leone has filed three prior appeals pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850,1 one previous petition for writ of error coram nobis,2 and one other petition for writ of habeas corpus for a belated appeal.3 Aside from the fact that Leone’s arguments in this proceeding have little or no merit, they could and should have been raised either on direct appeal or encompassed in Leone’s first rule 3.850 motion. Hardwick v. Dugger, 648 So. 2d 100 (Fla.1994). Enough surely is enough. See Isley v. State, 652 So. 2d 409 (Fla. 5th DCA 1995).

DENIED.
